Damn it! More than 4 years into this nightmare and I hadn’t heard that one.

Let him finish!!! “Eddie Van Halen: meh favorite guitar player.”

Crimes and Misdemeanors is a legitimately great movie.

my favorite part is when a bunch of present-day college students are bantering and one insults a woman by saying she resembles Yassir Arafat, like all teens do

A TV really isn’t big enough to appreciate the the climactic scene where Timothee Chalamet opens a series of portals and brings through dozens of characters from earlier Woody Allen movies to fight Liev Schreiber. 

And I suspect, deep down, many of these people know it, too.”

There are only handful of musicians who completely revolutionize the way that their instrument is played.  Eddie is in that group.  No one sounded like him before he showed up and then everyone sounded like him.

Set aside the concept of best for a moment.

Show me a better, more influential rock guitarist.  And I’m not talking about some classical virtuoso no one’s ever heard of.  I mean someone who could just absolutely bring the heat, wrote great hooks and set the tone for a generation of players.  I’ll wait.

Boy, I really hope somebody got fired for that blunder.

“Friends say this move has turned into a nightmare,” the source says. “This is the toughest period they’ve had so far without a No Doubt.”

I agree. Look, I’m a 46 year old American male; I love the movies (except the prequels). I grew up loving Star Wars. But it’s not...like...a lifestyle. There are plot holes, there is hokey writing at times...who cares? It’s sci fi fun.  People need to get some perspective. 

I can’t be the only one who despises Butcher more than pretty much any other character (well, let’s say, before Stormfront was introduced). At least Homelander has the excuse of being conceived and raised as a monster, and is only effective because he has superpowers, otherwise he’d be mostly pathetic. Butcher is
